Rozanne Gold's "Opinionated Way to Roast a Chicken"
For years, I've stuck to Jacques Pepin's method for roasting a chicken as my go-to technique.
Per Pepin, it basically involves roasting the whole chicken on one side, and then turning it twice more during the cooking process. The placement of the breast directly against the hot surface of the pan gives the skin awesome color. Not per Pepin, sometimes I slick the pan with olive oil and stuff the cavity with herbs, garlic, and lemon. The whole chicken gets a rub of salt and pepper at the start.
Now that I've tried Rozanne Gold's "Opinonated Way to Roast a Chicken," I'm rethinking my roast chicken ways.
